EXTRAS: B&W version of today's natural mono

For those of you who were struggling to believe the image today was a natural black and white, here it is changed to black and white for you. It is not the same. The natural one has tints of yellow and green that the camera could see, but the brightness had removed the capacity to read magenta and cyan.

The natural phenomenon is all about what can be perceived when light levels are either very high or very low.

No editing on this except to transform to B&W

Original colour photo that turned out natural mono is here:

It is unedited so it was as it came and a natural black and white.

For @bjywamer @pej76

Ah. Now I see the difference. Thank you for taking the time to explain and demonstrate the differences.

[Pat Knowles]

A very slight difference on the surface but as a whole picture I like the natural one best. That slight lack of pigment which you can’t really see by the naked eye does make a difference.

[Casablanca]

@pej76 As if you hadn't had enough eye issues lately without my picture being complicated!! Glad it helped to show the alternative.

[Suzanne]

Thankyou for the explanation. So interesting

[Phil Howcroft]

love them both but the natural one wins Casa' , contra jour on that east coast in the morning light / sun

[Vincent]

Wow! Breathtaking!

[Babs]

Interesting. You can see a slight difference between the original and this black and white can't you, but not much.

[Barb]

@casablanca Thank you!

[Kathy A]

The horizon is certainly more black & white in this one

[Diana]

How interesting, I must say that I prefer this shot.

[Pat]

This is fabulous!

The sparkle on the water gives this photo a lot of noise-like texture.
